The centerpiece of Life University’s bold, 20-year master plan was to transform its “arrive and leave” commuter campus to a more robust 24/7 campus where studying, dining and socializing are commonplace. To achieve this objective, HGOR designed two critical outdoor spaces to complement the LEED-certified café. The gathering space features shaded areas, reflection pools, a fire pit and a stream; the central quad features a 1,200-seat amphitheater. The dramatically re-visioned exteriors increase student pride, encourage outdoor activity and positively impact recruitment efforts.
